ah, i thought you were getting them lol. just need to read more.. good to know though. i was pretty tempted by those ksports for my p5.

will probably save up and give some bc coils a try.

I found the Mazdaspeed set-up Ray. They're made for them by AWR. Eibach on Bilstein's. Just need the CA$ to rebound again. US$1840.00 :(

lol you gotta pay to play..lol thats why ksports are good.

Valk 12-02-2008 06:25 PM

why not try the bc coils. looks like a pretty sweet setup for the money. I might give them a shot after the fmic/jpipe/exaust and afc.

mspseedP5, I've seen your car parked at esq gym a few times. From a personal experience I've had my stereo and other stuff jacked from that lot, so just be careful. Anywho, look's like you have made a lot of progress on the car,looks great, keep it up.

mspeedP5 02-03-2009 08:16 PM

So, when is it going to race??????

RZZ 02-06-2009 01:30 AM

so will the crazy turbo yellow P5 come out to race in next winter event? :D

mspeedP5 02-06-2009 06:24 AM

Realistically I'm thinking the Summer Series. Might be ready sooner but we'll see. I still don't have any rubber. Waiting for my rims and coils to arrive and then I have to do some measuring. Hoping to squeeze some 245's into my wheel wells. Also have the fuel system to install and then tuning as well.

RZZ 02-06-2009 09:14 AM

for my itr, 235 is really tight fit already (all around, with right camber setting, right offset for wheels) for 245, i guess you have to pull fender on your P5 or run fender flares/wide fenders on your P5...
well pull fender would be cheaper but you may have to repaint the fenders tho because it may crack the paint...:(
btw, how much do you pay for the BC coilover? take me for a ride when you come out for autox, i would like to see how it goes :)

I'm working on it! :)

mspeedP5 03-18-2009 05:22 PM

Had the FD rims media blasted and painted instead of powdercoated. I'm happy with the results...
